Hi,
I have a version of gpdk045_v_6_0 downloaded that I have been using. Virtuoso/Assura version info:
@(#)$CDS: virtuoso version 6.1.8-64b 04/17/2019 00:06 (sjfhw317) $
@(#)$CDS: assura_64 version av4.1:Production:dfII6.1.8-64b:IC6.1.8-64b.83 12/20/2018 04:02 (sjfib187) $
sub-version IC6.1.8-64b.500.3
@(#)$CDS: spectre version 17.1.0 64bit 05/09/2019 15:12 (sjfsb184) $
I made a simple circuit with a mimcap, laid out the circuit, and wanted to run post-layout extracted simulations, but ran into some issues.
Some relevant portions of the log are below:
-------------------
Loaded gpdk045/libInit.il successfully!

-------------------
By looking at assura/extract.rul, it seems as if there are some lines starting on line 2142:
extractCAP("g45cmim" _mimcap CapMetal("PLUS") metal10_conn("MINUS")
pwell("B") spiceModel("mimcap") cellView("g45cmim ivpcell gpdk045")
flagMalformed)
I don’t quite understand what this is doing (this language is a bit unfamiliar to me), but it seems as if this is the cause of the issue.
If I change the g45cmim in the cellView call to be mimcap, the extraction appears to succeed.
My question now is - was this cellView call with g45cmim intentional? That cell doesn’t exist in gpdk045 as far as I can tell, so I am a bit confused as to why we are trying to reference a non-existent cell.
Thanks!
